Lane Closures On I-30 Start Friday Night

Updated: January 7, 2009
Beginning tonight at 7PM, Little
Rock-bound traffic on Interstate 30 in Benton will shift down to
one lane.
The process is part of shifting traffic over to new lanes
constructed recently.
Several exits will also be closed during the process. The
on-ramp from Sevier Street in Benton will be temporarily moved to
South Street. The on-ramp from Highway 35 will shift One-thousand
feet to the west, forcing a quicker merge. The on-ramp at Congo
Road will move three-quarters of a mile east while they build the
permanent replacement ramp.
In North Little Rock, the inside lane of westbound Interstate 40
will also be closed on the John F. Kennedy overpass all week next
week beginning at seven PM. At Ten PM each day, traffic will be
stopped for up to 15 minutes to install steel on the bridge.
